Nice views on the river - Our guide was really flexible and friendly. It was kind of windy that day so we pivoted and chose to go on kayak and they made it really easy.

After 2 days of bar... - After 2 days of bar hopping and live music we were looking for a change in plans. This was one of the ideas and it was a great way to spend the day.

Adventure worth doing! - We had an AMAZING experience paddle boarding and kayaking on the river with this group. Dan and Co. were extremely friendly, and our guide Josh was great! Super easy and fun way to spend some time and see Nashville from a different point of view. Will definitely be coming back and recommending this to our friends! Do it!!! You won’t regret 😁
